The error seems not generic, it is written in another language (arabic), it appears after the application open a window, usually the accountant will not get this, he just enter his credentials... Fortunatelly it appeared that the application was on another drive and it is still working, my guess is that the security is linked somehow to his PC or to a license file somewhere in the folder... The problem is solved, but i still want to know more about this, what kind of security was implemented, might help me in the future.
